Is she on or eligible for TennCare? That can open up a lot of options that would otherwise be cost prohibitive for most families. Since nursing home care is so expensive, TennCare will even rent a home and employ a caretaker if the criteria is met. That's called the Choices program. I just went through some of this with a relative that I see after.

The same guy has cut my hair, and now what's left of it, for 30 years. Small town barber shops guarantee good conversation. He only charges $8, and I always give him $10. Seems greedy to ask for two bucks back.

Well said! That's the perfect response to the issue.

The standard Range Officer is a full size 5" 1911. The RO Champion is a 4" barrel with full size frame, and the RO Compact is a 4" barrel with an Officer size frame (shorter handgrip). It's not a scaled down version like the Browning.

The EMP does not have a composite frame. It's aluminum alloy. I'm not aware of any restriction on +P ammo, although I don't know why you would want to make that a habit anyway. The difference in frame size is not that dramatic. I like the EMP for a carry gun, but I really enjoy shooting my 9mm Range Officer Champion.

Not quite the same! But it would be good practice.

I use 231 more than any other pistol powder. I think it is the best all around pistol powder out there. It has a wide useable range for 45 Auto and a good burn rate for 9mm. I also use it for 38 Super plinking loads and 38 special. Works for 45 Colt too but it's a bit more position sensitive than I like. Remember Hodgdon HP38 and 231 are the same powder.

Thank you, OS! I updated the link in the original post as well.

I think I am the one who is computer illiterate! Haha! The attachment issue must be a problem with the TGO site. I put another link below the rules from a file hosting site, but I'm not sure if that's working either. This challenge has beaten the life out of me, so it's only right that I would have trouble linking the target! If anyone has a foolproof way of hosting a PDF I will email you a copy and then put a good link in the original post.

I think standard velocity is the way to go. It should be more consistent since it doesn't come back through the sound barrier. Wish I had some CCI SV to try. I'm ready to move on with my life! Haha!

No time limit! I just posted it up for fun right now. I wasted some more ammo on it today. I'm taking a break until I get my hands on some better stuff. Mini-mags aren't getting it done.

I've seen 22 mag twice at the local Walmart in the last month. The last time they had 35 boxes of CCI for $13.47/50 rounds.

Ok, I have uploaded the PDF to the original post as an attachment. Hopefully that clears up any issue. I was using Google Drive to host at first.

Does the link not work for you?

Try now. Thanks!

I found this on Rimfire Central several weeks ago, and it has been driving me nuts. I thought I would post here to see if I could get some other people interested. Misery loves company, right? Rules: .22 LR only 100 yards Must get 8 out of 10 straight shots in the bullseye (no sighters once you start) Breaking the outer black ring is in Must use official target linked below No fluorescent stickers to enhance the bullseye Bench rest ok - anything but a vise Click here to download target. Print as actual size. The bullseye should print just under 1 5/8". My best is 7/10 so far. I have done that over and over, so I'm about to lose it since I can't get that 8th round in there. But I've really been having fun with it. Ammo inconsistency and wind has been killing me. When you complete the challenge post a pic of your target along with details on your rifle, scope, and ammo used. If several people get interested in this I may offer up some sort of prize or drawing like they did over at RFC. Good luck!

What difference does it make how much money he has? He's a gun enthusiast who happens to be the President's son. What could be better?

Be careful about taking everything 1911tuner says as gospel. Here's his CYA statement from the article: "As long as the headspace is within spec, and/or the barrel ramp…throat…hasn’t been cut so far into the chamber that it loses support forward of the case head…the webbed area of the case…" Colt's method of barrel throating can cause big problems in something like a 10mm, and it doesn't take 200gr at 1200fps as 1911tuner suggests. Recent thread: https://forums.1911forum.com/showthread.php?t=705857 He also ignores the fact that the 10mm has evolved into much hotter round than Col. Cooper originally had in mind. If you're going to treat your 10mm like a .40, you might as well buy a .40.

Are we going to have to repost all our classified ads?

Why wasn't this intercepted before it passed? Did TFA/John Harris support this bill? I don't know the laws of every state, but I'm assuming that there are not many other states that allow the 18-20 y/o military exception. This is why we should be content with leaving our gun laws alone. Maybe this introduced with good intentions, but it wasn't looked at from all angles.

The explanations in that thread just sound like a bunch of excuses to make people join Team Buds. I don't see how they were losing money on cancellations unless they weren't enforcing their own policy. See attached.

I've pretty much stopped doing business with Bud's because of this, and I have spent a ton of money with them over the past 8-9 years. I loved the layaway option and used to always have a gun on order. I haven't bought anything from them since they started this BS. Not only is layaway Team Buds only, but some guns can't be put on layaway at all. The layaway program was a big reason I did business with them. On top of that, they aren't the cheapest game in town anymore. There used to be no point in looking elsewhere, if buds had it they would be the cheapest. But now other places like Grab a Gun and KY Gun Company routinely have them beat. My most recent purchase was from Grab a Gun and I was very pleased. The rifle shipped from their location the next business day, and no credit card fees with Grab a Gun.

My thoughts as well.

I think it's because he has a 30 meter zero.
